Generate a short story set near a beach.

assistant
Anne walked barefoot along the beach, feeling the cool sand between her toes as the sun beat down on her face. She breathed in the salty air, watching the waves crash against the shore. The sound was calming and peaceful, filling her with serentiy.

As she walked, she spotted a small cottage tucked away amongst the dunes. Curiosity drew her closer and she caught a glimpse of a figure inside the window. She walked closer, but the figure had vanished.

Curious, Anne stepped into the cottage. It was old, but filled with treasures and trinkets from faraway places. In the corner of the room, a cabinet caught her eye and she opened it to find an old map. It was a map of a distant island, with directions to a hidden treasure.

Without hesitation, Anne decided to embark on an adventure. She grabbed her belongings and jumped on a small boat to make the journey. After days of travel, the island finally came into view.

Anne jumped off the boat and quickly began searching the island for the treasure. After what seemed like hours, she found a small chest buried under the sand. She opened it and gasped in wonder—inside was a beautiful necklace with a mysterious sparkle.

Anne clasped the necklace around her neck and continued to explore the island. As the sun set, she smiled joyfully and knew she had found something truly special.
